I also think it is missing the concept of the African American sorority movement. Although suggestions are to present this kind of information, i.e. high gpa and saying sober, these kinds of things should be seen as common sense!
My question, will BET donate anything to our International causes? Will they be donating to EAF? The Delta's water care campaign in Africa? The Zeta's Z-HOPE? The Sigma Gamma Rho's Africare programs?

Who wrote this? Is she even in a sorority (even if she were, she could only speak for her sorority--if even that)? Have the respective headquarters been contacted with regards to the use of our shields?
Booooooo BET!

That is just skrait ugly... BET is notorious for doing things inappropriately with the NPHC affiliates... This might take another silent boycott again!
How in their right mind would they fathom thinking that anything like this is appropriate without contacting at least the NPHC HQ. Dayum!!!

That's turrible... it's not that hard to go to any of the NPHC Natl websites and at least find the crest. The author can't be Greek!

Our crest is not on our National website due to our Internet Guidelines; it shouldn't be on chapter or regional websites either. The only website is the NPHC HQ site; I surmise that they received special permission. In fact, BET appears to be violating our internet guidelines....then again, maybe that is why they used an incorrect one so that they are not 'technically' in violation...*sigh*.

No. BET has pulled this BS before. So don't be shocked... The AKA's crest and sheild are NOT be used on non member related documents or websites either.
If it were me, I would expect a hefty payment in our International Non Profits and projects we support...
